In this manual, the safety instructions are ranked as "DANGER" and "CAUTION".

!

DANGER

CAUTION

!

Indicates that incorrect handling may cause hazardous conditions,

resulting in death or severe injury.

Indicates that incorrect handling may cause hazardous conditions,

Note that the

!

CAUTION level may lead to a serious consequence according to the circumstances.

Always follow the instructions of both levels because they are important to personal safety.

Please save this manual to make it accessible when required and always forward it to the end user.

[Precautions for test operation]

!

CAUTION

•

Before starting test operation for system monitor, special function module monitor or ladder

monitor (bit device ON/OFF, word device present value changing, timer/counter set

value/present value changing, buffer memory present value changing), please read the manual

carefully to fully understand the operation methods.

For the devices that perform significant operations for the system, never perform test operation

to change data.

Doing so can cause accidents due to false outputs or malfunctions.

1. OVERVIEW

This manual explains the gateway functions that can be performed on the GOT-A900 series.

There are the following gateway functions to support remote watching and remote maintenance of

production sites from an office.

• Server function • Client function

• FTP server function • Mail send function

1.1 Features of Server and Client Functions

Collection of data by personal computer (server function)

Monitoring the GOTs (servers) from the personal computer (MX Component) allows data to be

read/written indirectly from/to the PLC CPU devices being monitored by the GOTs.

If the PLC CPU of a different maker is monitored, use of the server function enables data to be

read/written with only MX Component and the communication method to be standardized by

Ethernet.

Monitoring of other GOTs from client GOT (server function, client function)

Monitoring of the GOTs (servers) from the GOT (client) allows data to be read/written indirectly

from/to the PLC CPU devices being monitored by the GOTs (servers).

Use of the client function enables data to be read/written indirectly from/to the PLC CPUs of different

makers that are different from the maker of the PLC CPU connected to the GOT (client).

2. SYSTEM CONFIGURATION

This chapter describes the system configuration of the gateway functions.

2.1 System Configuration of Gateway Functions

When the gateway functions are used, one GOT connects to Ethernet and PLCs and therefore both the

Ethernet communication module and communication board must be mounted to the GOT.

Hence, the gateway functions cannot be used for the GOT that cannot be mounted with the Ethernet

communication module and for the connection form that uses the communication module.

(Example 1) For A951GOT

Since the Ethernet communication module cannot be

mounted, the gateway functions cannot be used.

(Example 2) For CC-Link connection

Since two different communication modules cannot be

mounted to one GOT, the gateway functions cannot be

used.

2.4 Precautions for Mounting the Communication

Board

How to mount the communication board to the GOT changes depending on the communication board

used. The precautions for mounting the communication board are described below.

Point

About the mounting of the communication board

Save the removed slot cover carefully.

(If the A9GT-J71E71-T is used alone without the slot

cover, foreign matter will enter the unit, causing a failure

or malfunction.)

3) Fit the bus connection board to the A9GT-J71E71-T.

4) Tighten the mounting screws (2 pcs.) of the bus

connection board to the specified torque (36 to 48N •

cm) to fix the bus connection board.

5) After fitting the bus connection board, mount the

A9GT-J71E71-T to the GOT.

2.6 Precautions for System Configuration

Connection to the intranet must be fully safeguarded.

Consult the network access provider or network manager (person who does network planning, IP

address management, etc.).

We have no liability for any system problems that occur at the time of connection to the intranet.

If a delay occurs due to network congestion, take preventive measures, e.g. install a bridge.
